INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CONTROL AUTOMATION AND SYSTEMS

The International Journal of Control Automation and Systems (IJCAS) is a joint publication of Institute of Control, Robotics and Systems (ICROS) and The Korean Institute of Electrical Engineers (KIEE), which is published as bimonthly periodical as of 2003. The two institutes have been discussing the launch of a joint publication, since 2001; by discontinuing the former English journals of their respective institutes, they aim to establish a high-quality archival journal. In addition to introducing a new journal name, the IJCAS, the joint steering committee has set a new publication direction. To broaden the scope of the journal, the committee has invited distinguished scholars from abroad as well as from Korea to serve on the editorial board. I am honored to work with them to make this a truly international journal.Our desire is to provide a forum for original research results on theory, design, experiments, and applications in all technical areas of control, automation, and systems. The journal covers three strongly related research areas including control, automation, and systems. This type of coverage is unique and it is the only journal covering these three areas combined in the world. To become a premier journal, however, we warmly welcome your active participation and contribution, not only by submitting your precious works but also by making constructive suggestions for improving of the journal.

《国际控制、自动化和系统杂志》(IJCAS)是控制、机器人和系统研究所(ICROS)和韩国电气工程师学会(KIEE)的联合出版物，自2003年起以双月刊的形式出版。自2001年以来，两家研究所一直在讨论联合出版一份刊物；通过停止各自学院原有的英文期刊，建立高质量的档案期刊。除了引入一个新的期刊名称IJCAS外，联合指导委员会还确定了一个新的出版方向。为了扩大期刊的范围，委员会邀请了来自国外和韩国的杰出学者加入编辑委员会。我很荣幸能与他们合作，使这本杂志成为真正的国际期刊。我们的愿望是为理论、设计、实验和在控制、自动化和系统的所有技术领域的应用方面的原始研究成果提供一个论坛。该杂志涵盖了三个紧密相关的研究领域，包括控制、自动化和系统。这种类型的报道是独特的，它是世界上唯一涵盖这三个领域的杂志。为了成为一份一流的期刊，我们热忱欢迎您的积极参与和贡献，不仅提交您宝贵的作品，而且为期刊的改进提出建设性的建议。
